Official NT dad thread: can the dads get love

[darthska]

Not looking forward to those insurance premiums once she gets her L's

Like I said, I just added mine and I think it increased around $200 for the year. Not too bad. Actually I don't even think it was that much. I'll have to double check and get back with you on that. Need to stop by my insurance office today, anyways.

Nah, it's definitely not that. If that were the case, I would've told my kiddo, "Congrats on your license but uuuuhhh I'm'a need you to walk wherever you gotta go."

so our little guy has been struggling with speech. Few weeks back my wife was getting ready for work and he sees her and said “Mom.” At first I wasn’t sure I heard it right but my wife said she heard it too and then he said it again. A few days later I pull up to my in laws and they’re outside with the kids and he sees me and said “dad!” Awesome feeling hearing him say it. He’s still not consistent with it but he’s definitely improving little by little.

How old is he? My 2 year old came up with a few words at 2, can do about 10-15 words at 2 years 10 months. Speech/language pathologist diagnosed him with a rare neurological disorder, apraxia (harder to move the muscles that produce the words). We're working on getting him therapy now, but sooner the better

Bittersweet moment. My son leaves for college Aug 13th. Few weeks back he had freshman orientation & it really hit me. He's only going to be 3 hours away. I didnt go away for school I commuted but I think this will be great for him. He's been with me his whole life but I think its good for him because like previous dads said he needs to become a little more independent. He really depends on my for everything so it'll be an adjustment for him. He's excited. Sigh

Man can’t believe my boy is already 1.5 time sure flies

NGL, I *censored* love the love you all got for your kids, cotdammit.

My baby is turning one in less than 2 months, just a few weeks. Time is flying. Makes me sad.

He’s 2 years 7 months. I’ll look into that. So far all his diagnoses have been delayed speech. He’s past all neurological assessments.

I took my almost three year old daughter to the beach by myself for the first time yesterday…

That was a challenge felt like super dad when we were done.

She had an amazing time though.

I can feel your pain bro. I remember the first time we took our first born to the beach. Wagon packed with EVERYTHING. Don’t think we hit the beach with the kiddo for another year lol it was traumatic.

 

[stuntman mike]

one day, my wife had to work and the kids were off so i got the bright idea to take them to the beach. there are tons of easy spots but no, i had to choose the more scenic and difficult one. that **** was challenging. my wife laughed because me and the kids were in bed and fast asleep before 8pm that night.

This is it! Tomorrow, I’m moving my daughter into her dorm at Howard. I’m currently driving her car and all her stuff to Maryland while she takes the plane.

I’m already missing her. After 18 years of waiting for this moment, I didn’t expect to feel this sad.

Her bfff since kindergarten came to say her goodbyes.

I do this every year, but...

"They typically include a child's name, grade, school, height, maybe even teacher."

... I post none of that. Just the pic.

Backed up my phone and now going through all the infant baby videos to delete and get back some storage space.
Damn time flies
Some of these videos are so funny, baby realizing she has control of her hands lol.

Daughter started her senior year Wednesday. She flat out refused the photo shoot . I still followed her around the house getting the unsuspecting candid photos though. Some of the reactions I got will now be my favorite photos of her for a long time . I saved her the embarrassment of posting them though .

Why match shoes to outfit when you can do shoes to stroller (and inevitable Lego store bag)

Two things this kid loves baseball and food. Which is pretty much all he’s done this summer. They grow so quick
